Kyle, e-mail, 25.07.2010 05:43 I came across a small turbine engine that is supposed to be a starter engine for a mig 21 but I am coming up short on finding more info on it. Would love to set it up as a display engine for shows. Any information or sites /books you may know of please let me know, thanks! reply

paul scott, e-mail, 11.09.2009 00:06 Classic design, amazing that a 'cheap-ish' throwaway supersonic fighter could've had such an impact. 11,000+ built, truly outstanding. reply

Nikos J. Farsaris, 08.01.2009 01:51 To my last comment... The R-25 engine with "boosted afterburner"is fitted to newer or reconstruted samples especially for interceptors. With this engine Mig-21bis models have a thrust to weight ratio over 100% at an altitude over 4000 meters that makes them (fitted with modern radars and missiles ) very capable interceptors against even 4th generation jets reply

Nikos J. Farsaris, e-mail, 08.01.2009 01:40 Mikoyan and Gurevitch got the prize! (Any prize) As my serbian and romanian friends told its a 60's fighter that still outfights much newer F-16s. Actually it was that fighter that provoced the evolytion to F-16 - as a simple high performance single engine all weather fighter. As far as I know it is still the backbone of many Aairforces as Romania and Yugoslavia even as a successor to successor (outliving Mig-23 and sometimes Mig-29) As regards Ian'question...

Taufan, e-mail, 21.12.2008 07:48 The best Jet ever. Not just widely produced & use but also has potential to be upgrade into 4++ Gen combat aircraft. MiG-21-97, Bison & Lancer has proven to be at par with 4 & 4++ Gen combat aircraft. reply

Alexandru Mihai Iancu, e-mail, 19.12.2008 12:17 MiG 21 ?!... Great fighter !. It came into service some 48 years!!! ago ( 1960, Soviet Union ). It was the main jet fighter for some 15 years, with Soviet Air Force and some 20 other countries. That's something. And it is still in service in Europe ( Romania, Croatia, Slovakia), Africa Central America (Cuba)and Asia. That's a record for sure !!!!! reply
